Ryan,
We use a company called Sipi Metals. They recycle the PCB's 100%, including
the tab arrays. They are located in Chigago, IL. Their phone number is
(800) 621-8013. There is a metal recycling company in Phoenix, Az. also,
but I can't remember their name. I am sure there are other metal recycling
companies local to you as well. By recycling PCB scrap, tubes, reels,
trays, & solder dross we have generated about $12,000/year in income, and
have saved more than $10,000 a year in waste fees. We also can say we are
an environmentally friendly company, which goes over well with a lot of our
larger customers (Dell, Toshiba, Unisys, Hyundia, Digital Equipment
Corporation, Compaq, etc...).
For tape & reel recycling see website http://www.componenttech.com or call 1
800-881-0780.
For Tube recycling see website http://www.semicycle.org
For solder dross and solder paste recycling contact the Alpha-Fry Group, a
division of AlphaMetals. They supply waste drums, transportation, and all
of the required manifestation documentation.
Good Luck.
Kathy Palumbo
